Question 58 — The Mode of Angelic Knowledge

After the foregoing we have now to treat of the mode of the angelic knowledge, concerning which there are seven points of inquiry:

(1) Whether the angel’s intellect be sometimes in potentiality, and sometimes in act?

• (2) Whether the angel can understand many things at the same time?
• (3) Whether the angel’s knowledge is discursive?
• (4) Whether he understands by composing and dividing?
• (5) Whether there can be error in the angel’s intellect?
• (6) Whether his knowledge can be styled as morning and evening?
• (7) Whether the morning and evening knowledge are the same, or do they differ?
